Thanks. Have created a stable download and, for good measure, replaced the hard drive. Now, finally all is well. But, it cost the loss of my main system due to lack of timely information. In addition none of the software l ordered actually worked. I had to do it myself though having no concrete idea of what I was doing. Nevertheless I will always support open systems in the firm belief that this is a "human right" issue.
